Patience births submission. It is a virtue that is born anew in us through recreation in Christ. As we grow from faith to faith in the knowledge of Gods Living Word. We are to be submitting to Gods perfect will in Christ. A sanctification process where the patient endurance of the saints produces the peaceable fruit of righteousness. The more we are submitted to God the more we will not fight back when trials and tribulations come. They are for the perfecting and testing of o

It's ok to contemplate death. It's a humbling thought to think about, doesn't it feel like you're going to live forever? Imagine all the people you love, all the hard work you put in, gone because of death. When God told Adam and Eve they would die I'm sure they struggled with that concept as we do now. Even with all the knowledge gained by every passing generation death is still a mystery. God made it that way so that we would not get comfortable in this world of sin and dea

In the eye of the storm is peace and safety. Many will say peace and safety. But the inner bands of strife are twisting tighter and tighter. The four angels standing at the four corners of the earth are holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any winds of strife from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. Gods grace is available in the eye and then judgment comes. Judgment has to come, it’s the only way to make peace. So much sin and destruction God all

No power, no life. You cannot do anything for the LORD, for the Kingdom without the power of Christ in your life. The only power you will have is the power of outage and darkness. We need to be connect to the true vine always, connected to the Spirit of Christ the true power grid for godly living. So many people have an appearance of godliness but deny its power. They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. You lose power when you stop p

Love is the greatest of virtues. I need it for my spiritual armor. I cannot swing my sword without love lest I become dull. If I have no love my helmet of salvation does not fit properly. And I take the blows to the head shattering my faith. My belt of truth fits loosely because I have lost the love for the truth leaving me susceptible to open shame exposing my nakedness of sin. And my gospel shoes of peace are worn because I have harbored hate and chaos in my heart. Having l

God gives wealth to the person who pleases him. And that person's wealth will not cause them any trouble. That's what it means when Scripture says the blessing of the LORD makes a person rich, and he adds no sorrow with it. Greedy people try to get rich quick but don’t realize they’re headed for poverty. A faithful person will be richly blessed, but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished. Think about this: If God gives wealth to a good person, then this is good news for

Standing on a high moral ground is a privilege from the LORD our God. We stand on the Rock of Christ, away from the raging waters sin and evil desires that drown us for so many years. It is by the grace of God that we can live a moral and honorable life before God and man. That is why must stand on Gods word in humility and truth. By this we can be sure that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments. There is a call of holiness that we are to live in. More than ju

Sin spreads. Sin spreads like cancer in your body. Traces of cancer can be found as small as on your big toe. If not treated in time your immune system will lose the fight and leave that area exposed to more rot and more disease. An open wound that never heals and begins to spread to other parts of the body. A doctor would recommend if the toe is gangrene and rotted to actually cut it off. And that in hopes that the cancer does not spread and actually heals on its own. Intere

Rebuke the waves. You faithfully answer our prayers with awesome deeds, O God our savior. You are the hope of everyone on earth, even those who sail on distant seas. You formed the mountains by your power and armed yourself with mighty strength. You quieted the raging oceans with their pounding waves and silenced the shouting of the nations. Those who live at the ends of the earth stand in awe of your wonders. From where the sun rises to where it sets, you inspire shouts of j

Don't Flinch. You should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus. If you are dead to sin the devil cannot feed on you. He is like a roaring lion, sneaking around to find someone to attack, someone to devour. If we are submitted to God fully we are less likely to flinch and go back into sin. The enemy knows if he can get us just to hesitate, or just get a foothold on us. He can then get his guilty claws into your heart and mind
